A few months into my stay, my sublet was ending. I had no firm ideas about where I was going to move next. I went to the beach for a few days with some friends and randomly told the “manager” of the small bungalows, that I was looking for a place to live. She said, “Hold on” and called over a French woman. After literally two minutes of conversation the woman tells me that I can have her three bedroom house in exchange for buying her a new set a pots! She was go- ing back to Europe for while. Apparently the lovely Virginia, rented the house on a year’s lease, but had to return to France for four months, so she was offering it up to me. Amazing!64
